Crawled up beside you

Still learning how to

But I was yours to love

Painted you in gold

When I, I, I, I, I

Held you high above it all

F Am
Are we chasing it still?
G
Will we ever have it like we had it?
Fool's love
F Am G
When we thought it was real, did we really have it?
Or was it only fool's gold?

Painted you in gold

Will I ever find it like we had it?
